3. Press MON , then enter the moni-
tor memory number that has the
frequency you want to store.
MON and the entered frequency
appear, and the channel number
blinks.
4. Press ENTER . The scanner
stores the frequency into the
selected channel.
SCANNING THE
STORED CHANNELS
To scan the stored channels, press
SCAN . Your scanner scans through
all the stored channels except the
ones you lock out (see “Locking Out
Channels” on Page 27).
If necessary, readjust SQUELCH so
you do not hear the hissing sound
between transmissions.
TURNING CHANNEL-
STORAGE BANKS ON
AND OFF
You can set your scanner to scan
more efficiently by turning selected
channel storage banks on or off.
When you turn off a bank, the scan-
ner does not scan any of the 20
channels in the bank.
While scanning, press the number
key for the bank you want to turn on
or off. If the memory bank indicator is
on, the bank is turned on and the
scanner scans all channels within
that bank that are not locked out. If
the indicator is off, the scanner does
not scan any of the channels within
that bank.
Notes:
• You can manually select any
channel in a bank, even if the
bank is turned off.
• You cannot turn off all banks.
There must be at least one
active bank.
MANUALLY
SELECTING A
CHANNEL
You can continuously monitor a spe-
cific channel without scanning. This
is useful if you hear an emergency
broadcast on a channel and want to
hear all the details (even though
there might be periods of silence) or
if you want to monitor only a specific
channel or a locked-out channel.
To manually select a channel, press
MANUAL , enter the channel number,
then press MANUAL again.
